Weave4dayz365, I'm so very ready for Summerfest, Taste of Chicago, Milwaukee State Fair, Six Flag's Hurricane Harbor... all those activities that could prove fatal to a bad application! So, I'm hoping to get this adhesive concern of mine resolved before Memorial Day! Wink

BTW, I re-applied my unit last night with Proflex (No Shine)+No Tape. Wow, what a hold! AND it looks unbelievable believable at the hairline, unlike most tapes. Now the only test is to see if the tape can go the distance without turning white or gummy.

Sexi - i think you said that vapon no tape liquid didnt work for you (nor me for that matter) and u use UH and ORWG combo= cause i have both of those and never combo'd it but i may try it...

Shiny as a mirror in sunlight.... That's why I switched to Proflex No Shine in the front.

I found it on eBay. The seller is:   Ynobe Couture Lace Wigs. They're an extremely fast shipper.

stay with it, girlnextdoor. You'll find the right combination that works for you. Smile I realize that I can't stay with 1 product and hope it works during all seasons. 

I'm actually getting encouraging results from Proflex No Shine and No Tape. I putting it through the heat test while I'm at work. I have a desk heater pointed at me and so far, so good Wink.

Donnab63, thanks for the scarf tricks, saving it in my lf files for reference purposes later. Wink As for the summer adhesives, right now my goal is to get my nape to last as long as the front.  Just now, I found a roll of proflex tape i had cut three strips applied them at my nape and on the sides, added some davlyn and now I have my scarf secured tightly, said a prayer and now we'll see what happens in the morning.  I'm determined to get a high ponytail going.  With the combos I've tried in the past, they never last past a day.  I'm about to order some redliner tape and no tape and see how that goes. I AM DETERMINED TO GET MY LF ON THIS SUMMER Angry
